there's a man who wants to prove a point. Bairstow has the test spot and buttler's wants it... good for motivation in the short term... needs resolving in the medium term.
Blimey just checked score and doing well. over 200 with 20 overs to go... Still have Morgan, stokes who can hit a ball plus Ali, Wiley and Jordan. Should definitely be be looking close to if not over 400 here
wow 7.43 run rate. 10 left and wickets in hand. thats a 370 type score rate right now. only to accelerate if they really go at it in last overs.
you have to give the lads at the end credit to push it up to 399 in the end. jordan.... massive score.
this is the 19th highest all time innings score and englands second highest total, only the 408 beats it v new zealand. the thing is..... don't take your eyes off this one cos of the top 20 innings in history SA have 7 of them and scored 400+ very recently. Game on!
shame... rain stopped play with SA at 250/5 after 33.3 overs. england are ahead on D/L if it ends now. if SA are set a total with 10 overs or less they can prob get it.... ruined the contest this.
Was lining up to be a cracking chase. Still England as favourites given SA only have 5 wickets left and a couple for England should have sealed it.. but if it gets going again then SA might fancy their chances.
Only 268 to win set by sa. England favorites to win. Early wickets again for England. This one will be interesting. Full attack by England?
who the **** has any interest in cricket on a day we have a match let alone posts about it on this thread ?!
